TechAdvance is a payment application development company with a strategic focus in developing and deploying niche payment companies to serve the needs of large public and private sector organisations in Nigeria.
TechAdvance has subsidiaries across the IGR, Utilities, Finance and Transport Space in Nigeria.
About the role
Imagine 15 years from now, what does it look like to be one of the brains behind one of Nigeria’s FinTech brands? It’s pretty similar to what you see with Apple or CocaCola. We know they are common examples but that’s what we are trying to build with Bloc — a brand strengthened by community and represented with a strong identity.
In this role, we need someone who can think of Bloc this way — a visionary, someone who can dream. Someone who’s fearless with experimentation and isn’t afraid of adventures; can play with constraints and discover different ways to bring the brand to life with design (whether through visuals, writing, experience and any more).
Benefits & perks
- Fully remote. Work from anywhere you want (across the world).
- Flexible working hours. Work the best way you know how, whether you are an early bird or a night owl.
- Health insurance.
- Learning & development. Get assigned a yearly learning budget for courses, books and anything else you may want.
- Remote work allowance. Get coverage for recurring costs (internet, electricity, etc) incurred during remote work
- Reset days. Take time off when you are feeling overwhelmed, no questions asked.
- Gifts from the team at the most random of times.
What you’ll do
- Work with the Brand & Marketing team on the full Bloc architecture (with all of its subsidiaries).
- Join a small team of designers in the Brand & Marketing team who shape everything regarding the brand — websites, social media, templates, internal communications and much more.
- Craft every detail of brand projects, from ideation through to delivery. This ranges from a brand refresh, website page, custom gift, billboard, etc.
- Lead and creatively direct external agencies, collaborators and vendors (print, logistics, etc).
- Actively contribute to the look and feel of projects going on in the company across other departments to bring a level of extraordinary to every thing we ship.
- Learn about our products, employees and users to help curate experiences that will deepen their relationship with us.
- Co-develop systems and standards that will help teams across the company access and independently use the assets they need to tell their own stories on behalf of the company.
- Think of new ways to tell the Bloc story — show them what the brand stands for, what they can expect from the product experience and what it means for them.
